Question

If 2P= 5Q= 6R, then P: Q: R is equal to?​

Answer 1

Answer:

2P=5Q=6R=K (say).

P=2K

Q=5K

R=6K

So, P:Q:R= 2K:5K:6K

P:Q:R= 2:5:6.

Answer 2

If 2P= 5Q= 6R, then P: Q: R is equal to 15 : 6: 5

Solution:

Given that 2P = 5Q = 6R, then we need to find value of P:Q:R

Let’s say 2P = 5Q = 6R = k

$P = \frac{k}{2}, Q = \frac{k}{5} and R = \frac{k}{6}$

Now calculating P: Q: R

$P : Q : R = \frac{k}{2} : \frac{k}{5} : \frac{k}{6}$

$\frac{1}{2} : \frac{1}{5} : \frac{1}{6} = 15: 6: 5$

Hence the value of P: Q: R is equal to 15 : 6: 5
